A special note regarding the below Webcast Presentation:
Department of Labor Commissioner Patricia Mayfield who also served as a member of the United Way of Greater Waterbury Board of Directors and is a key presenter in the below 2009 webcast - passed away January 25th, 2010 at her home in Waterbury of an undisclosed illness.
As she noted in her website page, she touted the ability of the DOL to serve as a partner to the business community for "job-related consulting services, apprenticeship programs, recruiting services through the job bank and the One-Stop Centers, OSHA assistance, regulations, wage and workplace standards, rapid response to company downsizing or closure, shared work programs, and labor market information."
Governor Rell's statement goes a long way to explaining what made Ms. Mayfield special:
"Her distinguished career with the state of Connecticut stood as an outstanding example of dedicated public service and consummate professionalism...Pat Mayfield deeply cared for the people she served, and she made a difference in the lives of countless Connecticut citizens."
